It's not done on healthy, normal infants.

Viable, certainly but not commonly. Down's syndrome children can live, after all. And often, Down's can't be detected until the second trimester. 90% of parents facing a Down's pregnancy will abort. Those are more commonly done by saline or injection.

It's not done on a whim or out of convenience.
It's done because a wanted pregnancy has gone badly wrong.

The real question when it comes to abortion is "Are women actually intelligent enough to know what's best for themselves and their current/future families? Or are they just stupid, selfish monsters that men need to keep on a tight rein?"
